A series of unfortunate events

This is what I can call the week leading to our trip to Korea.

First, I had my face treated 5 days before our trip and the promise that it will heal within 3-5 days has failed. I can still see the spots. I need to use heavy concealer to hide them. Praise the day concealer was created.

Second, for some unknown reason I have viral infection which was aggravated by the Chicken broth i had for Sunday lunch and Crab for Sunday dinner. The horrific commute home Monday night and the exasperating change of venue during the morning. Not to mention the tuna I consumed during breakfast before my visit to the doctor. Now I have red spots all over my body, Reddish eye and swollen face. And I cannot eat any allergy triggering food. Basically, I'm down to veggies and pork. And all the buffet meals included in our trip? Goodbye. Did I mention I have slight fever at night? Body Heat scanner target!

With all this, how am I supposed to look like my passport picture? That is if I pass the body heat scanner!

So I can't eat much and I can't go to work also because I may infect others. This is adding to my stress. And to top it all off, I get an email stating a deadline before we leave. I am not a miracle worker.

Did I mention that yesterday, North Korea decided to bomb a place in South Korea? Just our luck.

Somebody save me.

Hay.

KRIS KRINGLE: Something Big

I never thought it would be hard to find something BIG for Php 100 pesos ($2) I short listed the following for my fashionable friend: ...a big box of tissue (useful) ...a big toblerone (but this is WAY over budget) ...a big trash bin ...a case of big oatmeal cookies (last resort) ...a big mirror ...a big bookmark (which i couldn't find anywhere) ...a BIG beer (unrelated) ...a big organizer it's quite difficult really. But I must search for something else. PRESSURE! On a side note, Jamie treated us to Pizza Hut's Lechon pizza. After eating, I felt like I would pass out at any moment due to high cholesterol but it was quite tasty if you're a fan of Lechon (roasted pig). The pizza did taste a bit like Mang Tomas' lechon sauce. A big slice of Pizza hut's lechon pizza

Ironic Cafe Monaco

Tucked in one of the building along Banawe is a quaint restaurant called Cafe Monaco. From the outside, the interiors looked cozy and perfect for hanging out with friends but I was quite surprised when I stepped inside to find out that most tables were occupied by families. And people actually are willing to wait for their turn to be seated! Kudos for that. My basis for choosing a restaurant is based on the line/wait. If the line is long or the waiting list is long, then it must be worth trying. We ate dinner at this restaurant yesterday evening and I actually loved it! It's a bit weird though that the name of the restaurant is Cafe Monaco but they serve a lot of Korean dishes. My aunt said that the owner of the place married a Korean hence the menu with Korean dishes. We tried bibimbap and at first bite, it was okay but the more you chew the better it gets. Healthy too, with little meat in the dish. Prices are friendly on the pocket too so I will definitely go back to try out thei...
